(FAGT) Finally A Guy Topic: Is this normal?

he is not looking for a commitment is my guess. just light dating. whether he is also dating someone else, too... is anyone's guess.

We talked about this and he told me he is not dating anyone else. He also said he is the type to only see his gf once or twice a week, 3 at the most.
 
Maybe he's not the clingy type that wants to see you every single waking minute of the day (which could be a good or bad thing).

A good thing, in my case. two or three times a week is good enough for me.

I just hope he is not the clingy or needy type (because I can't stand that). But I also hope that he likes me enough.
 
Honestly, you will probably just have to play it out and see how things go before you can say if he is or isn't going to be committed.

im the same way. i just like my space sometimes and also fear of becoming that guy who neglects his friends the second he has a girl.

edit: lmao at the topic.

Maybe, like you, he's not a phone person?

LOL @ FAGT


yes, he did mention that he is not much of a phone person. But I am also wondering if it comes with age? Do older men generally don't like to spend that much time with the girl they are dating because the last guy I dated is also in his late 20's and he too didn't like talking on the phone as much or seeing each other as much. I am not complaining, just seeing if this is normal among older guys?

I hate phones and love alcohol.
 
As far as the phone goes, every guy I know hates talking on the phone. We really don't care about what Sally said to Sue when Karen told her that she's going out with Steve...

We usually don't pay attention much. When I get into long phone conversations with girls, I just say "uh-huh" over and over and occasionally repeat what she said.

If you two hit it off well when you see each other, that's a good thing. Some people just aren't that clingy, enjoy the benefits of having a boyfriend and having free time.
 
Classic woman question...

"my boyfriend only wants to see me 2-3 times a week..."
well how many times would you like to see him?
"2-3, i guess that's about right"


so...what's the problem here?
 
I'm older than my GF and we go thru this too. :roll:

I don't feel the need to be on the phone for several hours a day. Don't take it personal... if the guy is still calling you and wanting to go out that's all you need to know. 😉

LOL that's what I was thinking.

From what you've said (OP), there's no problem here..... move along! 😉

No offense intended but it is just like a woman to get what she actually wants and then start questioning it and the guys motive....you lovelies are too damn insecure. 😉

He is older and more than likely has a routine and a life he is comfortable with. You can compliment that as long as you do not change it too much. If he has lots of hobbies or passtimes then that is one good explanation for him not being clingy. Over time if you like and enjoy his hobbies you will more than likely start to see more of him as he accepts you into his routine. Older guys do not require a woman's attention as much as younger ones especially if they are involved in a lot of different activities. If he says he is not seeing anyone else then I would believe him unless he starts giving away clues to the contrary. Just relax and see what happens.

there is no need to talk on the phone every single day for (x minutes) everyday.

Trust me, 5 minutes on the phone is the most I could do. I think I am more anti-phone than most guys I know. When I'm on the phone with my guy friends, I am usually the one who said, "alright your 5 min is up. gotta go."

thank you =). I am not insecure about him seeing other women and have no right to question him since we are just dating and not official. I just want to know if this is how most older men are =).
